... I am ...






After this, the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision: “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your very great reward. ” Genesis 15:1-3   


When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless. Genesis 17:1-3 


And God said to him, “I am God Almighty; be fruitful and increase in number. A nation and a community of nations will come from you, and kings will be among your descendants.  Genesis 35:10-12

... finding my true north again ...


Dear God,

What am I blogging for ?  What was my purpose?


My evaluating continues ... with clarity appearing between the cracks.

I really want to be creative … do art and make collage postcards ... and I have become a lot distracted by my blogging.

Time to get my focus back ... Time to get to the business of getting my hands dirty

Time to stop listening to all the reasons why not and get back on track!

Thanks God because all of this is about you and for you ... love ya

Always

... Yes I can ...


Hey God,

Being so sick this winter with the flu and sinus has given me the opportunity to reassess.  

What I have come to realize about myself is that ... I like the ideas and planning but suffer in the execution. 

I have also come to realize that I am not a workaholic kind of girl ... I need daydream time and sleep and sunshine time.

They are the boundaries that I have to work within to maintain good balance in my life ... and sustain doing my own business long term.  Yes I can still create and expand within these boundaries.

So here we go again God ... Help me be more understanding of me ... Help me work with the gifts you have created in me ...
Love ya always

... celestial garden ...

Dear God, 

this photo from the Hubble Space Telescope NASA amazes me ... you have created an awesome celestial garden

 the wonders that are out there ... your hand on your creation




And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years,  and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so.  God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars.  God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth,  to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.  And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day. 

Genesis 1 : 14 - 19


Love ya always

... water planet ...

Dear God,

I have been consumed lately by the amazing pictures NASA takes of our earth ...

NASA calls us The Water Planet ... "Viewed from space, the most striking feature of our planet is the water. In both liquid and frozen form, it covers 75% of the Earth’s surface. It fills the sky with clouds. Water is practically everywhere on Earth, from inside the planet's rocky crust to inside the cells of the human body."






Love ya always

... songs of salvation ...



Hey God,

... I have been a bit sick this week ... and having the time to dwell on all your goodness to me ... thanks a zillion trillion  ... Jesus you keep me moving on ... there is so much to do in this life time ... as I look out my window I see a world of possibility and a world in need ...

... there has also been a song at church (All to us by Chris Tomlin) that resounds with me ...

Precious cornerstone, sure foundation You are faithful to the end We are waiting, on You, Jesus We believe You're all to us
 ...
Let the glory of Your name be the passion of the Church
Let the righteousness of God be a holy flame that burns
Let the saving love of Christ be the measure of our lives
We believe You're all to us



Love ya always

... Glory worship ...

Hey God,

There is something about worship that moves my soul into another place ...

... it is like I am leaving the old ground behind and beginning to journey on new ground ...

... it is like business is being done in the heavenly realms when church worships ...

There is something about hundreds of people all declaring your name and giving you the Glory.




Love ya always

... faith ...

Hey God, 

... faith is some thing we cannot see or touch yet my whole life depends on it ...

Trying to explain to someone this experience I have with a living God who is SO real and tangible to me ... is at times a tongue twister to say the least ... my words do not do you justice but I know your spirit makes up for all my short falls ...

... thanks for giving me the faith of a mustard seed ...





Love ya always
